| 5 | x | − | 45 2 | ÷ | 4 | × | x | + | 45 2 | = | 5 | ÷ | 7 |
| Left side of the equation = | 5 | x | − | 45 8 | x | + | 45 2 |
| = | - | 5 8 | x | + | 45 2 |
| - | 5 8 | x | + | 45 2 | = | 5 | ÷ | 7 |
| Right side of the equation = | 5 7 |
| - | 5 8 | x | + | 45 2 | = | 5 7 |
| - | 5 8 | x | = | 5 7 | − | 45 2 |
| - | 5 8 | x | = | - | 305 14 |
305 14 | = | 5 8 | x |
5 8 | x | = | 305 14 |
| x | = | 305 14 | ÷ | 5 8 |
| = | 305 14 | × | 8 5 |
| = | 61 7 | × | 4 |
